Intel to Collaborate with Microsoft on DARPA Program
Intel today announced that it has signed an agreement with Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) to perform in its Data Protection in Virtual Environments (DPRIVE) program.
Light in Concert With Force Reveals How Materials Become Harder When Illuminated
When indented by a probe in darkness, wafers of some semiconductors are putty-like. When illuminated by light whose wavelength matches the band gap, they become hard, as electrons and holes freed by the light suppress the propagation of dislocations.
Reduced Heat Leakage Improves Wearable Health Device
North Carolina State University engineers continue to improve the efficiency of a flexible device worn on the wrist that harvests heat energy from the human body to monitor health.
